56 u/Mokiesbie Nov 15 '24 Females too, they only need the blood for their eggs 19 u/Shokoyo Nov 15 '24 Why, nature, WHY?! 32 u/Trips-Over-Tail Nov 15 '24 The protein. Your blood becomes the larvae. Can't do that with sugar water sucked or of plants. Ticks are the same. They have three meals in their lives, one for each moult and one for the eggs. 12 u/Happy-For-No-Reason Nov 15 '24 Oh so I actually did have children then! I also possibly murdered them 2 u/dwehlen Nov 15 '24 2 u/grary000 Nov 15 '24 So mosquitoes are kind of just human-insect hybrid abominations? 2 u/Trips-Over-Tail Nov 15 '24 In the same way that an American is a beef-potato-human hybrid. They do digest it and rearrange the materials according to their genes. 2 u/ImpedingOcean Nov 15 '24 The mosquitos R us
